This season: Kansas opened Big 12 play with a 1-2 record, but has since rattled off marquee victories over Iowa State, BYU, and Texas Tech. In nonconference play, KU posted a 10-3 record with wins over notable opponents such as Tennessee, NC State, and Missouri. Meanwhile, Utah finished nonconference play with an 8-5 record but has since lost eight of its last nine games, many of which were not particularly competitive.

After his playing days, Jensen transitioned into coaching and landed assistant roles with the Utah Jazz and Dallas Mavericks at the NBA level prior to heading back to his alma mater.
Bill Self, Kansas: Self holds a 1-1 career record against Utah, with the lone loss coming last season. However, Saturday will mark his first matchup against Jensen and the first time the Jayhawks have ever hosted Utah inside Allen Fieldhouse.
